I thought the diamond fruitcake was the height of confectionery decadence but they are at it again in Tokyo. This time it's jewels and chocolate, combining bitter chocolate in the shape of the African continent with over 2,000 diamonds. The jeweler created the chocolate to celebrate South Africa. The piece is worth nearly $5 million. The Turn to 10 website has video of the story.
